PyrShep Tani: December 2009

Tani ...

... was born in a litter of 4 puppies on December 25th 2008. She spent the first two months of her life in the Loubajac kennel in the French Pyrenees. Her mother is Pecquelette de Loubajac and her father Hob-Nob's Victor.

When she came to stay with me, we started Silvia Trkman's puppy school, followed by Sivia's tricks class and later on agility handling classes in LoLaBu training center. We do everything using only positive training techniques. We are very fond of Silvia and her dogs, specially the crazy little La who is Tani's 3/4 sister. We also attended handling classes with Daša Zakotnik and Polona Bonač.

Tani has many passions in her life. The biggest one is agility, of course, but she also loves playing with her beagle sister and BFF Xsara, hiding her toys in the most odd places, running through the fields and meadows, playing with sheep and eating.

Happy Birthday And Merry Christmas :)

Exactly one year ago, my biggest Christmas wish came true. Far away in the Pyrenees, a little star was born. She was named Désirée because she was the most desired little princess in the whole wide world. She spent the next two months on the beautiful propriety of the Loubajac kennel, playing with her sisters Razz and Rayas, her brother and her parents Pecquelette and Victor and other dogs. She was also surrounded by sheep and geese.

When I first met my playful little puppy, she looked like a little furry racoon :) She decided right away that we belong together and followed me everywhere I went. She was very happy to find out that we have another dog, her beagle sister Xsara. They soon became inseparable.

Today she is one year old. A lot has happened since then. She now responds to Tani, a cool name that derives from the name of a sport motorcycle Suzuki Katana. She became a wonderful young dog, learned tons of new tricks, discovered that there is a very fun game she likes to play which is called agility, found out that sheep run really fast if you run after them and bark hysterically and learned that world is her personal playground :) I hope she will become even more snobbish and self-centered in the years to come. Happy birthday, my little Tani! I promise I will do my best to keep your tail wagging all the time. A very happy birthday also to Razz and Rayas and, of course, a merry merry Christmas to everyone!

Our improvisation of a Christmas tree - here by the sea it's Christmas pine tree :)

Yeeeeees, it's a real sheepskin tug!!!! She stole one just like this from a pyrshep on EO, but had to give it back ... Now she has one of her own, ordered from CleanRun!
